ABSOLUTELY SAFE to use while breastfeeding, if you can eat blueberries, you can eat Acai IF you are using 100% Pure Acai!

.. and of course common sense says you would avoid "Diet Pills" - everything a Mother Consumes goes into her milk.

If using Acai supplements just check in and make sure that ALL the ingredients are safe for baby. If ingredients are not listed or in doubt - don't go there.

Acai Berry is just that - a small purple berry grown in the Amazon. It is hailed as a SuperFood - meaning it has higher than normal concentrations of Antioxidants - what a wonderful thing to introduce into your diet especially while breastfeeding - to assist you and baby avoid the effects of pollution/free radicals. And hey, Antioxidants is just one of the many wonderful nutrients in this wholefood.

As far as I am aware there is a company in Australia that sells 100% PURE Acai wildcraft harvested from the finest Acai producing parts of the Amazon - handpicked by a Coop of around 100 local families. Their berries are pulped and dried immediately upon harvesting to lock in the nutrition.

Here is an extract from their website that I found honest and informative

= Pure Dried Acai = ... (deleted intro) .. acai (ah-sigh-ee) is an amazing energy berry from Amazon palm trees. The acai berry is still sustainably hand-picked by the native Amazonians and then sent down the forest road. Hidden within its royal purple pigment is the magic that makes it nature's perfect food. RioLife acai is packed full of antioxidants, energy, essential omegas 6 & 9 (good-for-you fatty acids), fibre, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. Antioxidants neutralise free radicals, which are known to damage cells in the body. Free radicals are caused by stresses on the body such as pollution, exposure to the sun, exersize, smoking, and poor diet. RioLife's pure dried acai, unlike most other powders, retains almost all of the nutritional value of the fresh fruit and is a tasty food supplement for juices, smoothies, yoghurt and cereal. Serving suggestion: 5g (or 1 heaped scoop) can be blended into your favourite smoothies, juices, yoghurts, and shakes. INGREDIENTS: Pure Dried Acai powder, absolutely nothing added. 1 serve of 5g of RioLife pure dried acai contains: * Equivalent to 345 dehydrated acai berries * Same level of antioxidants as over 400 blueberries * Low GL (Glycemic load) * Similar level of fibre to 1 slice of whole grain bread * Similar amount of energy as 1/3rd of an average banana * ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) up to 2670 per 5g serve

What is an acid berry?

"asid berry" is most likely a misspelling for "acai berry, " a reddish-purple fruit from a type of palm tree native to Central and South America. There has been a lot of hype about Acai Berries and their supposed health benefits, but very little substantiated evidence of such claims. Similarly, "Acid Berry" is another unproven diet food that has turned out to be linked to accusations of fraud.so we should be careful about it and try to take acai berry from trust worthy sites.


Is the acai berry safe during pregnancy in any form?

Listen, A babies life is very important. The first thing that you need to do is take your Acai product that your thinking about taking and bring it right to your physician. I would not trust any one but a medical professional for answering a question like this. Yeah Acai is good for you and mothers in the Amazon rain forest actually consume large amounts of Acai after child birth, typically around 40% of their diet. But it's not worth the risk to find out the information on the internet, I would contact your physician, he will have the answer. And if he says you can take Acai, don't just take any Acai, take a quality product. Make sure its freeze dried Acai, that it's pure, and make sure it doesn't have any fillers if it's a pill capsule.(most of them do) There is one brand I have found that I personally take is great, it's called "Perfect Acai", I suggest it to anyone who wants to take Acai.
